US Air Force Approves Statement of Capability for Sanswire Flight Testing.

PALMDALE, Calif. -- GlobeTel Communications Corp.'s (AMEX:GTE) wholly owned subsidiary, Sanswire Networks LLC, has been granted a Statement of Capability (SOC) by the Air Force Flight Test Center (AFFTC) of the United States Air Force, permitting Sanswire to flight test its Sanswire 2 high altitude airship technology demonstrator. Sanswire began to seek approval for the SOC in February of this year. NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center, also located at Edwards, will provide meteorological services to the Air Force Flight Test Center in support of Sanswire's flight test effort.

The flight tests will occur at Edwards Air Force Base in California's high desert. It is planned that flight tests may extend through the fourth quarter of 2006. The Sanswire airship is scheduled to fly several test sorties at Edwards Air Force Base Range after the successful completion of tethered flights.

"We are now about to start the flight test program for the Sanswire 2 Airship, our Technology Demonstrator. These test flights will begin after the replacement carbon composite structure is received from our suppliers as described in the July 17 press release," stated Bob Jones, Sanswire's President.

Timothy Huff, CEO of GlobeTel Communications, stated, "I view this as a significant step toward our goals and I applaud Bob and his team on obtaining the approval for the SOC."

About Sanswire

Sanswire is developing a Wireless Broadband Network utilizing high-altitude airships called stratellites, which are similar to satellites but stationed in the stratosphere instead of in orbit. Stratellites will be used to provide wireless voice, video, and data services. The Stratellite is being designed and tested to operate at an altitude of between 55,000 and 65,000 feet utilizing onboard Guidance and Navigation Control (GN&C) to achieve its on-station position.

At an altitude of only 13 miles, each Stratellite will have clear line-of-site to an entire major metropolitan area and should allow subscribers to easily communicate in "both directions" using readily available wireless devices. Each Stratellite will have hybrid electric motors powered by solar cells, other state-of-the-art power generation systems and energy storage technologies.

In addition to Sanswire's Wireless Broadband Network, proposed telecommunications uses include cellular, 3G/4G mobile, MMDS, paging, fixed wireless telephony, HDTV and others. For more information, please go to http://www.sanswire.com or http://www.globetel.net.
